Environmental Wind Engineering (COE-IAS4) SCOPE The effect of wind is a very important issue in the building engineering and civil engineering fields. 85% of economic losses due to natural hazards around the world are caused by wind damage, and thermal conditions and air pollution in buildings and urban environments are greatly affected by wind. Wind engineering has a significant role in handling these issues. Researchers and engineers have an obligation to society to tackle these problems in a positive manner.　However, few universities have curriculums in this area. The proposed school intends to cover this lack of relevant advanced professional training. Lectures in the advanced school will deal with natural ventilation, indoor and outdoor air pollution, and air flows in buildings and cities. The lectures will also outline the latest available knowledge. The advanced school will be of interest to students, engineers, and researchers who work in relevant scientific research or design topics. ADMISSION Applicants must apply at least one week before the beginning of the course and applications with the applicant’s name, affiliation and address can be sent by post or E-mail to the following address. The registration fee for the course is 80,000 KRW (Student: 40,000 KRW) including lunch and coffee.
